Grace Socks

Nothing is as graceful as lace. This toe-up lace sock covers the whole foot with grace since the lace pattern starts from the tip of the toe. Twisted-stitch tendrils lick flame-like at the edges of the foot, then blossom into vines that extend up the sides. This sock features a rounded toe and gusset/heel flap construction, my favorite construction for a really well-fitting sock.

Cascade Lace Blend Shoulder Cowl

The soft caress of this yarn is perfect in this elegant and easy-to-wear garment. The design evokes the soft curves of cascading water or sand patterned by the receding tide. The cowl’s simple shape is highlighted by small, round glass beads at the neckline, while larger, cubic beads adding weight and sparkle at the hem.
